Sarah Palin, the former Alaska governor and 2008 vice-presidential nominee who became a Tea Party sensation and a favorite of grass-roots conservatives, will endorse Donald J. Trump in Iowa on Tuesday, officials with his campaign confirmed. The endorsement provides Mr. Trump with a potentially significant boost just 13 days before the state's caucuses.

There is a difference between a law passed by the federals and a ruling by the SCOTUS. Please learn our system. No power can overturn SCOTUS decisions.

I was talking about Trump until you brought up Cruz. Isn’t it also a Palin thread?

It means that whatever Trump said means nothing, if they want to believe that he really meant something else.

Sarah sounds nervous, discombobulated and just weird.

I hope Sarah does not regret her decision. Wonder what Trump has promised or implied in order to get the nomination. Maybe nothing, but I will not be surprised if there will something in it for Sarah. Sad to see that the lives of some of her children are a bit of a mess. A daughter with two out-of-wedlock children and now a son arrested for drunken driving. Need to pray for that family.

They want to be hornswaggled by the media.

I’v been trying to point out from the beginning that the media have been creating Trump’s candidacy by keeping him on screen constantly.

Yep, I expect Trump will likely win the nomination.

But some of us aren’t going to trust him at face value. He is a lifelong global elitist, crony capitalist, Clinton lover, and big government populist at best.

That is what his RECORD tells us.

So some of us don’t think he’s the next national savior.

If elected, I hope he does try to make America great again. By his past actions, he certainly has had a hand in making it worse.

I know we, many of us are on edge. But it is amazing people could be that arrogant and condescending when that person is your candidate. But good luck to you.

I won’t get into the damage done by her daughter lighting into Cruz this afternoon.

Bristol, to use an old-fashioned term, is a twerp; her statement is unlikely to have legs. Your analysis of Palin's and conservatism's loss is accurate, I fear.

Another SCOTUS Ruling or a Constitutional Amendment can overturn a SCOTUS Ruling.

She is grouping Cruz with the establishment, she is making a total fool of herself.

What happened to the roaring Palin applause? I`ll tell you what, the roaring applause that Sarah used to get is for Cruz now.

Sarah Palin has sold out, she sounds like such a idiot. She wants to say nice things about Rand Paul, but not a kind word for Cruz as of yet...I am embarrassed and ashamed for her

"Her various failings, as I see them, are not in her conservatism, anyway. But the main point is that the best conservative position is the one that conserves the United States as we know it and love it. If we don't conserve that, there's no point discussing all the individual issues, as there will be country to improve or defend."

Some prescience there, the endorsement speech has taken this tack...

Hard to open your ears when you’re spinning so wildly, huh?

Why would you bring up her children in this current event?

Ask yourself whether or not you have the discipline to administrate your own life.

That was despicable and deserves admonishment.

No wonder Seattle lost.

In Iowa, even bigger deal for Trump is the governor Branstad imploring Iowans to stop Cruz from winning in Iowa.

Who are you to decide what’s normal?

Palin’s brand of Christianity is certainly not found in God’s word.

I have supported Palin politically, but never have I believed that she has any understanding of the Word of God.

Just her loose language should tell you that much.

Amazingly enough, candidates don’t agree with every single thing even a spokesperson says or does.

But if you want to go that route feel free I guess.

You can tell Trump is signaling to his security to get her off the stage.

Does menopause cause this?

"It's sad when the one Republican you supported and trusted turns out to be a phony and a fraud."

Consider The Null Set™ (shouldn't be hard) - she's right and you're wrong.
